About the Book
Winner of the International Booker Prize 2026, 'Taiwan Travelogue' is a bittersweet story of love between two women, nested in an artful exploration of language, history and power. Disguised as a translation of a rediscovered text by a Japanese writer, this novel unearths lost colonial histories and deftly reveals how power dynamics inflect our most intimate relationships.
